The solution to add subtitles to an Instagram Reel

How do I subtitle a real one on Instagram?

Since 2021, Instagram has launched the possibility of adding subtitles automatically in Anglo-Saxon countries. A few months later, the option arrived in France. So, we may ask ourselves how Subtitle a real Instagram ?

Let's look at it together:

First of all, a real one on Instagram is a short video, like TikTok. This short video system allows you to develop a snack content strategy for your business. The user consumes this type of video without stopping and during breaks in the day. He can watch your video on public transport for example. Inscribing subtitles on your videos is therefore essential!

Follow the steps to subtitle a real Instagram:

Go to your Instagram profile

First you need to:

• click on the burger menu at the top right (the 3 small lines),
• then in settings,
• account,
• And finally subtitles.
• All you have to do is check the activation of the feature to have the possibility to generate or to activate subtitles.

This option will therefore allow you to view stories, videos and real ones with subtitles when the author of the video has activated this feature. You will then have to click on the 3 points of the video and then on “generate subtitles”.

The result may be random or disappointing but that's why we'll see how, as the creator of the video, you can create your subtitles properly.
